Re: Dual Boot - Win98/WinXPpro - Win98SE won't recognise DVD ROM d



Good luck with VPC. It has some quirks, but serves very well for most
people.

Thank you, that's a bummer...

Besides, with that new mobo, do you not also have a huge HD?
Over 137 GB? That, too, is a problem for Win9x.

Yes, but the Win98SE partition was going to be below 2GB, and there are
system.ini changes to allow for 1GB+ memory, none of which seems to matter
now!

Suggest you instead use Win98 in a Virtual PC (or VMWare) environment on
a
Windows XP or 2000 or Vista host.

Thank you - I'll try to find this and install it

And sorry Gary about the double posting - I thought it was all one
newsgroup
and was trying to catch people with either "Win98" or "WinXP" filters
set...
